1. The number of people _____ from other counties to the United States has caused a shift in unemployment in the textile market.

• A. Emigrating
• B. Immigrating
• C. Migrating
• D. Emigrated

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Immigrating' because it refers to people coming to live permanently in a foreign country. 'Emigrating' (Choice A) means leaving one's own country to settle permanently in another, which does not fit the context of people coming into the United States. 'Migrating' (Choice C) is a general term for moving from one place to another without emphasizing the aspect of settling in a new country. 'Emigrated' (Choice D) is the past tense of emigrate and does not convey the ongoing action of people moving to the United States.

2. Which word names an infected swelling with liquid inside?

• A. Blast
• B. Gash
• C. Hive
• D. Boil

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A boil is an infected swelling on the skin filled with pus, which is a type of liquid. It is typically caused by a bacterial infection in a hair follicle or oil gland. The other options, blast, gash, and hive, do not specifically describe an infected swelling with liquid inside like a boil does. A 'blast' is a sudden strong movement or gust, 'gash' refers to a long, deep cut or wound, and 'hive' is a skin reaction characterized by itchy welts.

3. To vivify someone is to ___________.

• A. belittle him
• B. animate him
• C. alarm him
• D. spoil him

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To vivify someone means to give life or animation to them. It involves revitalizing or energizing someone, rather than belittling, alarming, or spoiling them. Therefore, the correct answer is "animate him" as it is the most suitable synonym for vivify in this context. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the meaning of vivify.

4. The jawbone may be called the ___________.

• A. mantis
• B. mantua
• C. mandible
• D. manganite

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The jawbone is commonly referred to as the mandible in anatomy. It is the largest and strongest bone in the human face and forms the lower jaw, holding the lower teeth in place. "Mandible" is the correct anatomical term for this specific bone structure.

5. Where is the posterior part of the body located?

• A. Topmost
• B. Lowermost
• C. Front
• D. Back

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The term 'posterior' refers to the back of the body. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Back.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. 'Topmost' and 'Lowermost' do not specifically refer to the back of the body, and 'Front' is the opposite of 'Back.'
